This class is mostly hands on learning that deals with wood construction. Many different power tools as well as hand tools are used. My father was a carpenter and started his business 1963, so I have been around construction all my life. It is rewarding to take a pile of lumber and turn it into a master piece. I enjoy my family time, good friends and making new friends.
